Due to emergency delays, a substantial backlog of bands were still queued waiting to play at the close of the contest. It was agreed with Greater Manchester Police, who needed to reopen the road, that these could play in the arena but not march on the street. The Huddersfield Marathon band objected to this and were disqualified after subsequent events.
